With the themes feature, you can create a consistent, polished document throughout the slide, with background styles, shape styles, table styles, theme colors, theme fonts, and theme effects that best match the current document.
You can use over 40 built-in themes, or customize your existing themes and save them as custom themes.
Click the themes image collection to unfold 40 types of image collection grouped by Current Presentation, and Basic. If you have a custom theme, the Custom group appears.
At the bottom of the image collection, the following menu appears.
Open the Browse Themes dialog box to import the theme file you have saved and use it.
Open the Save Current Theme dialog box to customize the current theme color, theme font, theme effect, and then save and use it.
Click the theme in the themes image collection to apply the selected theme to all slides in the current document. Note that when you are using multiple masters, the selected theme is applied to the slides that use the same slide master.
If you select a theme from the themes image collection and right-click it, the following context menu appears:
